pheede writes: SCOTUSblog brings us news that the FTC has appealed the recent circuit court decision regarding Rambus' deceptive conduct on the JEDEC standards commitee where they conveniently omitted to tell anyone that they owned patents on the resulting standards. The FTC, which is proceeding on its own without help from the Justice Department, notes the circuit court's "sweeping rules that would immunize" deceptive conduct by a would-be monopolist "in most circumstances."
